God does not go deaf just because people rebel against him. It is more important to accept his son Jesus than to worry about committing offenses against God. (Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;) God does not see one sin any greater than another with the exception of blashpmy of the Holy Ghost, which is the only unpardonable sin.

If one knows better and still do the wrong, why should
God hear their prayers?
If one is trying to change from doing a dirty habit and
prays sincerely to God for strength to change, I believe
that God will hear that sincere prayer. But if someone just want to party and sin and still reap the benefits of having God and His Angels watch over you, it doesn't work that way.
The Bible says that "works without faith" is no good and neither is "faith without works"
In other words, one can say "I love God and I believe God " but our actions speak louder than our words.
The works we do shows if we really love God and His Words.
John 1:1 says "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God." So believe His Word.
You cannot have it both ways.
God hates a lukewarm person. If we are Christians, we must act like it.
If not, we will pay the price on Judgment Day.
It's good that you at 13, are seeing truths right now and
making choices before its too late.
Its too late now for many teenagers who have given up their virtue because of peer pressure.
Sure, God can forgive a sin of fornication
but whats done is done.
You cannot erase that sin from your body.
God knows all things and hears all things but if you want
to have a special bond with God, read His Word and
obey It. Fornication is a sin against God and against your own body. Your body is supposed to be the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit cannot dwell where there is sin.
That Dove will fly away from a sinful nature.
So keep the heavenly channels open and clear for God to hear and answer your prayers.

Sin has been attoned for through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross for those who believe and sin is no longer the issue and cannot keep God from hearing you.
However, the Bible says that we can come boldly before God when our hearts do not condemn us.
The problem of sin and especially sexual sin is the guilt that follows can be very condemning and can cause you to become seperated from God and unable to have a relationship with Him.
The Bible says that Eternal life is knowing God not just saying a "prayer of salvation". We will all live forever, the questions is where.
Do youself a favor and while you are young, read the Bible with the purpose of finding out exactly how much God loves you. You will be amazed about what God says about you.

1st Corinthians ch 7 vs 1 tells us fornication is an abomination to God. However, if you have done this that doesn't mean that God will not hear your prayers. He does hear you. Good for you on wanting to wait till marriage. The guys will appreciate you more if you do. Guys when dating look for fun, Guys who get married look for a decent girl. So you go and you wait.,

Waiting until you're married is a very good way to look at this type of subject. It's a very good way because:
-Who knows what is out there you can catch.
-Many people have lasting relationships with there partner if they understand each other first.
-God listens to all your prayers, thoughts, words, and feelings; fornication after marriage is a very loving thing.
-Life is all about finding that one true love and having faith in God to guide your relationships toward a better, loving, lasting, bountiful life.

God will always hear your prayers. Don't let anyone or anything ever take that assurance away from you. Fornication does not take away God's ability to listen to you. The problem with fornication is that it takes away your ability to hear the whisperings of the Holy Spirit which is God trying to communicate with YOU.

It's never okay to commit fornication, but that in and of itself won't keep God from hearing your prayers. Stick with your plans, wait until you're married. My wife and I did and we are both glad it turned out that way.

Honestly, I don't understand the whole "waiting for marriage" thing. They say you can't experience love until your married, however many people just get married because they can and don't ever love that person. I think that lust isn't the way to go. I've been with my boyfriend for 20 months, we live together and I love him more and more every day. Yes we have sex and we will probably get married after college. We love each other and we are already planning our marriage, why can we not?

PLEASE! PLEASE! Wait until marriage. God hears your prayers if you are truly repentent(sorry), but don't think you can do something now and say well I'll just pray for forgiveness later.
That's the wrong approach. If you have questions, pray about it, God will show you the way. Or find someone you trust and talk to them. 13 is hard and it doesn't get much easier through your teens. But remember you are never alone.

he will answer your prayers and will never stop..do remember that an answer can be a "yes" or a "no". people think that if you commit a sin and just ask for forgiveness then they will be forgiven..they are very wrong, repentence is much more than a simple "sorry"..you must really mean it and want to stop that sin. It's like knowing a person who tends to forgive alot and think "if I steal his/her car to please myself and later say sorry, he/she will forgive me" it doesnt work that way with God. God knows your heart and KNOWS when you are sorry
